uilt in the traditional style of a New England Cape Cod House, this home takes full advantage of the views to be had of Brackley Bay and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The doors and many windows of the building’s south elevation face the Bay, while the kitchen and open concept living area overlook the Gulf.

A full length deck along the warmer south side of the house also captures the south-facing views and facilitates outdoor living. The three-quarter-Cape design also remains true to its origins through its clean, dormer-free roof line. A rooftop cupola, complete with cow weather vane, provides subtle identification with the nearby meadows and potato fields of working farms.


Marjorie Penny's Experience

My husband Don and I flew up here and spent two days with Rob and Pat, but we knew in the first 15 minutes that they were going to do our house. We had total confidence in them.

We were very happy with the plan our architect came up with, but Rob came up with some changes that really worked. I’d be at the other end of a telephone call with a set of plans in front of me, and I’d think, “Boy, he’s right.” He’s got a terrific eye, and improved on our architect’s plans.

I’ve been in the interior design business for 50 years, often working with three different builders a week, and I have never worked with a company like this. The job was completed on schedule, and when we arrived here everything was perfection. The house was immaculate. I’ve never had such workmanship.


In our own experience, Don and I restored or built 12 houses, and we never found anyone who was so reliable and took on the load of responsibility. They were the best people we ever worked with. I’ve come to the conclusion that should I ever built another one — and I might — I think I would just hand over my check book and say go to it. I would have that kind of faith. I just think they’re fabulous. I would recommend Rob Roy Builders to anyone without hesitation.
